About Us
Step Teknoloji Your Best Solution Partner
Step Teknoloji Ltd. Şti. Step Technology Ltd. Co.'s core area of activity is conducting hardware and software research and development on machine-machine and human-machine interactions.
Founded in 2011, Step Technology Ltd. Co. has been heavily involved in R&D activities in the fields of electronic hardware and embedded software since its inception. With its young and dynamic staff, it has the potential to pioneer many subjects in its field.
In recent years, significant research has been conducted on the increasingly popular concepts of Industry 4.0 and IoT (Internet of Things), making it possible to read data from any kind of device and partially write data with the developed hardware and software.
Main Sectors We Work With:
Our Location
Step Technology Ltd. Co. is located within the ULUTEK Technology Development Zone on the campus of Uludağ University in Bursa but continues its operations throughout Turkey.
Industry 4.0, IoT, ArGe
Industry 4.0
Faster, Smarter, and More Collaborative Methods
Industry 4.0 was originally used in its first edition by the Industry platform at the 2011 Hannover Fair. "INDUSTRY 4.0 represents a technological evolution from embedded systems to cyber-physical systems."
Throughout history, there have been four major industrial revolutions:
The advent of machines powered by water and steam
The introduction of electric machines and the concept of production line logic
Industrial Automation
Transition to Cyber-Physical Systems
Industry 4.0 primarily aims to merge Information Technologies with Industry. One of its key components is Next-Generation Software and Hardware, targeting hardware that differs from today's traditional equipment by being low-cost, space-efficient, energy-efficient, heat-efficient, yet equally reliable. It also aims for operating and software systems to be frugal in terms of resource and memory usage.
The second and perhaps most important component is the Device-based Internet (Internet of Things), where all devices on Earth are interconnected for information and data exchange. This involves integrating all kinds of tools with sensors and processors, forming Internet-connected smart electronic systems, also known as Cyber-Physical Systems.
If the Industry 4.0 strategy is realized, production time, costs, and the amount of energy needed for production will decrease, while production quantity and quality will increase.
Internet of Things
Machines vs. Sensors
The concept of the Internet of Things is generally perceived as enhanced machine-to-machine communication; it is built upon a foundation of cloud computing and data-gathering sensors. It operates through mobile, virtual, and instant connections and is predicted to make everything in our lives, from street lamps to the refrigerator at home, "smart".
Machines vs. Sensors
Much of the discussion has focused on Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication; that is, devices talking to devices. However, a device or machine is a tool, created to perform a specific task. When we talk about making machines smarter, what is meant is not M2M. At this point, what comes to the forefront are sensors.
M2M
A sensor is not a machine. It does not have the kind of tasks that machines perform. It measures and assesses; in short, it collects data. The concept of the Internet of Things becomes more valuable when considered as a conversation between sensors and machines. However, the information collected by sensors will lose its significance if there is no infrastructure to process it in real-time.
Cloud
Cloud-based applications currently hold a critical point in terms of real-time data processing. Without cloud support, the Internet of Things would fall short in evaluating all the information coming from these sensors.
Electronic Design Projects
Embedded Systems
Defining an embedded system precisely is not straightforward. Looking around, we can see that we are surrounded by electronic systems in some form. Generally, all electronic systems, except for general-purpose computers (those with a screen and keyboard), are referred to as embedded systems.
A system is the organized operation of one or more tasks within a set of rules, plan, or program. In other words, it is the operation of all units coming together and functioning according to a proper plan or program. The term "embedded system" corresponds to embedding software capable of performing a specific task onto hardware that is designed for a specific application or as part of a larger application or product.
Basic Characteristics
Application-Specific
Embedded systems are application-specific and have singular functions; the application is known beforehand, and steps are executed in a repetitive manner.
Efficiency
Efficiency is crucial for embedded systems. Energy, code size, processing times, weight & size, and cost must be optimized.
Real-Time
Embedded systems are typically designed to meet real-time requirements, being triggered by a device or operator at any time within their environment.
Interactive
Embedded systems often interact with their surrounding environment through sensors or actuators, making them interactive systems.
Limited Interfaces
They lack interfaces. If present, the interfaces will be very limited.
